Project Abraham

Project Abraham is an all-encompassing effort reaching out to disadvantaged, at-risk or abandoned children in Costa Rica by attending to their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs.

Project Abraham consists of three children's homes, a 12-room daycare and school center, and a multi-purpose auditorium building for cafeteria foodservice, large school events, and Sunday church services. The daycare and school center serves approximately 120 needy children every weekday, ranging from 6 months-12 years of age. They receive instruction, meals, enjoy activities and all the children receive training in English as their second language. By providing hot meals, a safe haven, quality instruction and responsible caregiving, Project Abraham is making a difference in the lives of these children.

During the summer of 2011, eight parishioners headed to Costa Rica, and provided a four-day English language program for the children, as well as helped with a construction project at the site. Before leaving the USA, the team collected gently-used soccer shirts/jerseys, shorts and shin guards, and distributed them to the children at Project Abraham.
